I couldn’t speak more highly of Summit Treks and Adventures. I came to Nepal pretty
much clueless in regards to what I would be doing “adventure” wise, and where I would
be going. I was so fortunate to find Summit! Bikram and his crew were nothing but kind
and honest. I booked many trips with Bikram, from spur of the moment bus rides to
Pokhara and Chitwan, to a well planned trek in Everest region. All of which turned out
great. When I first came to Nepal, I knew Bikram as my “Travel Guy”. After 5 months
of countless cups of tea, one too many glasses of rum, and a few too many of his wife’s
delicious momos, I leave Nepal calling him a friend. Many of my fondest memories of
Nepal would not have happened without the help of Summit, and I am forever grateful
for their help and kind hearts. If you book with Summit Treks, I guarantee that you will
gain many great memories as well as a friend.

Singu Chuli (6,501 m) was formerly known as Fluted Peak. The first ascent of this peak was made by Wilf Noyce and David Cox on its North-East Face and the top section of the East Ridge. This mountain has proven to be very difficult to climb for most commercial climbing groups who have tried to concentrate on Tent Peak.
Singu Chuli is the first summit on the long ridge thrown down from Tarke Kang (Glacier Dome), which separates the South and West Annapurna Glaciers. Annapurna South Base Camp provides the best distant view of the mountain. To date, apart from the original route, most efforts to climb this mountain have concentrated on the face and ridges seen from this viewpoint. The southwest ridge of the mountain connects with Tent Peak. The terrain between the two mountains is a confusing one and the ridge is not straight.
